I started reading and unplugging devices to quiet my mind. When I can’t concentrate on reading I do word searches, put on headspace or journal using my Anti-Anxiety Notebook made by therapists.

I like to read because it gets me sleepy. Otherwise, if the anxiety/nausea is very bad, I take gravol and that knocks me out.

I have also recently discovered this anxiety relief music and I doze off to it sometimes: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=79kpoGF8KWU&t=1726s

This might sound weird but it’s true. I’m single, but you can have your partner help if you have one. Just a simple good ole fashioned can help sometimes. Gotta take care of yourself.

Journaling. It helps me focus my anxieties of the day enough that I can usually set them aside long enough to sleep.

I try to turn my mind off with Meditation, only focusing on the sounds of the night. I pray and ask God to help me with my life and certain problems.
Smelling essential oils in a diffuser may help.
Lot's of blankets and a heating pad are comforting as well.

Using a sound machine with the ocean. Playing soothing music.

I think reading a work of fiction can help you disengage from reality and forget about negative thoughts for awhile until you fall asleep.

This year I broke down and subscribed to the CALM app which provides soothing music, sounds and bedtime stories. I also drink Sleepytime tea. I have used herbal supplements like lemon balm and valerian root that have a calming effect. And someone else mentioned lavender essential oils in a diffuser. Oh, and a nice bath/shower helps to unwind.

Hi- I have a friend who was diagnosed with anxiety and when she has an attack, she plays worship songs to help her sleep. When her anxiety is worse, she has medicine to calm herself.

Please keep us posted, God bless.

I have Apple Music and when my anxiety is high I search for "meditation and relaxation" music and just lay there and try to work on clearing my mind and focusing just on the sounds of music. I find that the Calm app music also helps.

I know it's counter-productive from typical science on blue light and stimulation before bed, but I have a couple light comedy t.v. favorites that I have season collections of.

When anxiety is that high for the day, going to bed with those on (and timer set) sometimes distracts me enough to stay out of my head. I've seen them so many times, I am sort of passively watching and its somewhat of a comfort.
